Physics Honors

Welcome to Physics Honors. For hundreds of years, scientists have been engaged in inquiry and research in a quest to understand how the world (and universe) works. They observed phenomena, recognized patterns, and devised explanations. Based on the explanations, scientists tested these ideas in an effort to develop them further. In our ten months together, we will use the same scientific process and reasoning that historical scientists used to develop critical thinking skills and strategies through laboratory investigations, experiments, projects and presentations, and problem solving in an effort to better understand how the world around us works, and why the currently supported explanations for Physics from the scientists are valid.
